Went with a Trash Panda originally on my 300BlkOut,…now that my approvals are coming back in 6 business days I added the Thunder Chicken to the stable,…just because. 😂😊❤
Thanks for the comparison! Very close, indeed. The definitive decision point for me is the $780 price for the Thunder Chicken! I couldn’t pass up that sale price! 👍🏼
Nice comparison. If I could afford to purchase, I would follow your lead and get one of each :) I'm very impressed with what I've seen from the entire Q line of products. Love that Honey Badger!
Damn now I'm really jealous. Ordered my Thunder Chicken and still nothing almost a month now. Hope it comes in soon just to start the paperwork. Thanks for the video.
I'd say if you shoot mostly supers: Thunder Chicken. If you shoot mostly subs: Trash Panda is probably plenty. Of course you have to consider length as well.
Panda is less length so you have that control over your firearm, Chicken is more length with more sound suppression but less firearm control cause it's longer. Both suppress tho, so idk, your still gonna be happy with either.
little off subject but what is the red dot set up? i have a new evo scorpion micro and looking at a simaler set up. rmr with a lower mount. possibly leupold.
Ivan, I would like to know more information about the suppressor you ran on the 8.6 Creedmoor _The Fix_ SBR, is it a Q design? and if so would it be coming to market in the near future?
double your ear protection use ear plugs with high NRR 33 ear pro together and then top if off with the suppressor and your hearing should remain intact well into old age, perhaps. www.asha.org/public/hearing/Loud-Noise-Dangers/#dangerous
Kit I finally got my thunder chicken yesterday. My barrel is a 10 and 1/2-in faxon. I used rocksett on the cherry bomb. I have a question about clocking the suppressor. I noticed that the baffles are not entirely symmetrical, So the cutouts have ended up at about 4 o'clock. do you bother trying to clock your suppressor or do you just accept where it ends up? I'm going for my first shots here today so I'll get some data on accuracy at a hundred yards.
@@KitBadger Thank you. About 1.5 inch groups at 50 meters. 4-5 inch at 100. I know I'm mixing measurements, lol. Romeo 5 red dot. Faxon 10.5 inch barrel. S&B 200 grain subsonics. No misfires, misfeeds or other issues so far.
@@KitBadger TY. For my air rifles, 30-06 7mm, or even my 22's that would be unacceptable accuracy. But given red dot, astigmatism, short barrel, and inexpensive subsonic ammo, I'm satisfied. I'd never be shooting past 50 meters of so in the North Georgia mountain woods. You'd never be able to see that far unless you were shooting across a valley, which this doesn't have the steam to do. So for a pig, deer, coyote gun, it is ideal for me. Thank you for your content. Very helpful.
Hey Ivan I have, well the atf has my honeybadger it’s been a year long wait so far went pending August 29 2018 I’m looking for another silencer I want 30 cal what’s the difference between the trash panda and full Nelson is it just two inches? If that’s the case then the full Nelson is quieter right? Also if you were getting a Rifle Dynamics AK74URD which silencer would you get for it? Thanks brother
The Full Nelson has more volume than the Trash Panda, a lot more. So it will be quieter and a little longer. It is also a direct thread. Unless you have a gun with a tapered barrel, like a Fix, I'd shy away from the direct thread. They are amazing when they work together with barrels, otherwise, they keep wanting to back off. Q's will do a better job than most, because it is tapered inside rather than a square shoulder, but still, not as handy. For an AK, I'd go with a Trash Panda or Thunder Chicken and then get a Cherry Bomb for it.
If you already had a hybrid and a dead air nomad would you get the trash panda or thunder chicken? When is the 6.5 creedmoor q can coming out? Figured you might know since you and Q seem to be tight.
Kit Badger Was the added length of the thunder chicken worth the extra reduction in sound or do you prefer the trash panda? Also keep in mind if you had to pick one and you had a fix and a honey badger. Or would you get the trash panda for the honey badger and wait for the q Jumbo Shrimp or stalkier or whatever they will call their dedicated 6.5 creedmoor can for the fix? Q should just have a program where you pay like $20k and get every one of their products until you kick the bucket.
@@thegolflife7565 Totally depends on needs and intended use. I personally really like the Thunder Chicken on my Honey Badger. I think the Jumbo Shrimp will be the way to go on a 6.5, but you can't use it for 30 cal stuff.
@@KitBadger Brevis is made specifically for PDW-type firearms and has 3D printed "unibody" design. Also, it's made out of Inconel and has at least the same internal volume, if not bigger, than those Q traditional suppressors due to it's stubby-thick form-factor. So, it should be quieter and is definately shorter, ligher and can withstand higher temperatures.
Irrelevant to this video but I noticed in one of your other videos you said leave no trace was that a Boy Scout reference and if so are you an Eagle Scout?
I think the Trash Panda was named after the pandas at the Beijing Zoo, as when we visited there, my Ex-Wife was complaining, "Dirty, lazy da xiong mao.
They’re both a good purchase but i like the tone in the TrashPanda. And attached to Q pistol it makes to a smaller compact package.
I recently purchased a Honey Badger and Thunder Chicken and 220 subsonics are so quiet! I love it!
Went with a Trash Panda originally on my 300BlkOut,…now that my approvals are coming back in 6 business days I added the Thunder Chicken to the stable,…just because. 😂😊❤
Given the benefit of the HB is it's short length I went with the Trash Panda.
Great video, loved the back to back comparison at the end. Very useful
100% Thunder ☁️⚡️ Chicken 🐔, Ivan. To my ears 👂🏻, it was superior suppression. 🇺🇸🗽🦅
Agreed, but there are size/weight considerations for people depending on their intended use.
Thanks for the comparison! Very close, indeed. The definitive decision point for me is the $780 price for the Thunder Chicken! I couldn’t pass up that sale price! 👍🏼
Nice man, I think you'll love it.
I have a Honey Badger, Fix, Trash Panda, and Thunder Chicken. My favorite setups are Honey Badger/Thunder Chicken and Fix/Trash Panda.
Solid combos!
😂😂😂 is that definitive in anyway.....
Probably not...haha
Just buy both 😊
Yep, both. :)
Over the video it sounds like the Thunder Chicken was the quieter of the two with subsonic rounds.
It was to my ear. Just a matter of considerations, length, weight, etc.
Thank god the video I’ve been waiting for!
Right on man, glad to help.
Nice comparison. If I could afford to purchase, I would follow your lead and get one of each :) I'm very impressed with what I've seen from the entire Q line of products. Love that Honey Badger!
They make some magic. :)
I go with the trash panda just for the size.
Solid choice.
Great video! I’m leaning towards the Trash Panda though.
No wrong choice. :)
Lightning Gobbler for the win.
Thanks homie!
just got my 3 Q firearm, 2nd HB. I got the HB pistol and the HB SD ... i got a matching serial # with the Fix and TP
That is so cool you got the matching serial numbers. That was a really cool thing they were doing there for awhile.
Damn now I'm really jealous. Ordered my Thunder Chicken and still nothing almost a month now. Hope it comes in soon just to start the paperwork. Thanks for the video.
No problem buddy. Good choice too, they are great cans.
@@KitBadger sorry forgot to ask where again did you get the silencer cover from
@@891496127 it is a custom one from Cole-Tac. They can make them for pretty much any size and diameter of can.
I'd say if you shoot mostly supers: Thunder Chicken.
If you shoot mostly subs: Trash Panda is probably plenty.
Of course you have to consider length as well.
Probably a pretty good approach.
I went with the thunder chicken. Max suppression!
Solid choice!
Thunder chicken was ever so slightly quieter, but I like the name of the trash panda lol 😂
Fair point. :)
Panda is great over the chicken reducing the gun length and still getting good suppression. Just depends what you want. :)
According to the packaging, Thunder Turkey and Trash Raccoon is correct. Gotta let the company know of this typo. ;)
Panda is less length so you have that control over your firearm, Chicken is more length with more sound suppression but less firearm control cause it's longer. Both suppress tho, so idk, your still gonna be happy with either.
Got the Thunder Chicken for my LM308MWS.
Just gotta wait now 😞
Waiting is the worst... But you made a good choice. :)
how much did the Thunder Chicken cost everything after taxes etc? not including the tax stamp of course.
Thunder chicken!!
Great vid as always, man
Thanks buddy!
Great video!👍
thunder chicken!
Did Cole-Tac put the Q on the suppressor cover? I want one for when I get my Trash Panda.
I made it there, Part of my Factory to Table series.
Great video...I am now waiting for my Trash Panda to come home so I can install it on my newly acquired Sugar Weasel.
Keep them coming Kit Badger 👍🏻
Awesome, congratulations Brian. Such a fun setup.
Trash Panda for 8 inch Gen 4 N4-PDW, and Thunder Chicken for the 16 inch 308 The Fix.
Solid choices.
KRS how do you like the noveske?
little off subject but what is the red dot set up? i have a new evo scorpion micro and looking at a simaler set up. rmr with a lower mount. possibly leupold.
tommy guns an rmr with a sclarworks Mount. I already copied that coolness from another video
Ya, it is crazy lightweight.
CZ Custom makes a Trijicon rmr mount low enough to cowitness with CZ EVO factory sights.
I got both 😏
Obvious solution...
Awesome names.
They have some awesome names for products.
@@KitBadger how about 'Barking Spider'
Is the ThunderChicken quieter than the Honeybadger silencer that comes on the HBSD?
Probably, but I haven't shot them side by side.
Kit Badger I appreciate it. I haven’t seen ANYONE do any comparisons with the Honeybadger silencer. Hook a brother up 😉
I'll see what I can do. :)
Kit Badger awesome!!!!
I made a Thunder Panda by tig welding them both together.
Thanks. Now I need both…
Ivan, I would like to know more information about the suppressor you ran on the 8.6 Creedmoor _The Fix_ SBR, is it a Q design? and if so would it be coming to market in the near future?
They'll probably release it at the same time they release 8.6, so next year would be my guess.
I always get this rifle mixed up with the Spikes tactical honey badger
There is only one Honey Badger Johnathen... :)
Kit Badger this is true love the channel was curious how the little cz bolt gun is doing have you done anything with it recently?????
It is awaiting paperwork to SBR it...
Meh, shoot enough without ear pro and it all starts to sound suppressed after a while. 😋
#truth Sad, sad truth, haha.
What? What'd you say?
double your ear protection use ear plugs with high NRR 33 ear pro together and then top if off with the suppressor and your hearing should remain intact well into old age, perhaps. www.asha.org/public/hearing/Loud-Noise-Dangers/#dangerous

I think this is the 3rd time I’m subscribing to your channel. What the heck!?!?! 🧐🧐
TH-cam hates gun channels... :(
Sounds like thunder chicken wins
To my ear it does. But some favor something shorter and lighter.
Just goes to prove my point everything in guns is a trade-off

Thunder chicken
News on the 8.6 blackout?
Not on my end, sorry man.
Cant wait for the fix in this calibre!
Both of those are HUGE. While Delta P Brevis looks like it was made specifically for this Honey Badger.
As in length or diameter? I'm not familiar with the one you mentioned. Have you shot all 3, how do they compare? Or do you just mean aesthetically?

I’ve learned so much about the outdoors from being a scout! It also looks good on a 17 year olds resume!

I'm not looking for a fight now! I don't care who's wrong or right now! So release the doves into flight now!
You know what's up...
Great video Ivan,
In your opinion, what are some of the quietest cans you’ve shot for 300 Blackout?
The quietest I've shot is the Thunder Chicken. Not to say there aren't others, but that is the best I've used.
@@KitBadger Is the Thunder Chicken quieter than the SureFire 300 SPS?
@@justinbiggs7729 Probably Surefire isn't known for being quiet. At all.
I got a thunder chicken for my Ddm4 pdw
Hi Ivan
Is the Honey Badger SD quieter than the Honey Badger SBR with the Thunder Chicken?
I am not sure, but probably not. The Thunder Chicken has a lot of internal volume.
Qd vs dt for q cans, go!
The Trash Panda definitely has a loud first round pop! Get the Thunder Chicken
They sound the same to me.
Thunder chicken is more quiet
Over gassed
I think the Trash Panda was named after the pandas at the Beijing Zoo, as when we visited there, my Ex-Wife was complaining, "Dirty, lazy da xiong mao.
Thunder Chicken is quieter, there is no question.
